B&B: Timmsy on life and the Games

In: WNBL, Boomers & Opals, Misc — Thursday, 22 Jul, 2021

MICHELE Timms, one of the all-time greats of Australian basketball, a pioneer and a pacesetter synonymous with international success, joins Brad Rosen and me on our Brad&Boti podcast this week to talk about her life and story, plus the latest Olympic developments, including Liz Cambage's departure from the Opals.

Opals boost and USA starting to track upward

In: Boomers & Opals, NBA — Tuesday, 20 Jul, 2021

DESPERATELY unlucky to be omitted from Australia's team for the Tokyo Olympic Games, Sara Blicavs' late call-up is a huge bonus for the Opals, while the USA men are now looking at a golden opportunity in Japan.

Opals end 11-year drought with USA win

In: Boomers & Opals — Saturday, 17 Jul, 2021

AUSTRALIA's most regular Olympics basketball medallist Opals today inflicted a 70-67 wound on Gold Medal-defending USA in a stunning exhibition match in Las Vegas highlighted by Ezi Magbegor's emergence as a genuine star of now.

USA will be an Olympic enigma

In: Boomers & Opals — Friday, 16 Jul, 2021

THEY'VE hardly had much time training together as a unit and still are awaiting three of their main men, and now Bradley Beal has been ruled out. It's hard to know what to make of the Gold Medal-defending USA ahead of the Tokyo Olympics.

B&B: All about the green 'n' gold for AV

In: NBL, Boomers & Opals — Wednesday, 14 Jul, 2021

WE wanted a man with a rich Olympic history for this week's Brad&Boti podcast so Brad Rosen and I scoured our records for just the man and found the ideal candidate in Andrew Vlahov. This man was a Boomers' monster and we love this interview because he calls it as he sees it.

Chris strikes Gold, Nigeria strikes out

In: Boomers & Opals, NBA — Wednesday, 14 Jul, 2021

CHRIS Goulding struck gold today with a magnificent 7-of-7 threes, helping the Boomers sink burgeoning Nigeria 108-69 in an exhibition match, rocking Las Vegas bookies and further exciting prospects of a maiden Olympic medal in Tokyo. 


AUS too good for USA

In: Boomers & Opals, NBA — Tuesday, 13 Jul, 2021

FALLING in behind our Olympic flag-bearer Patty Mills, Australia's Boomers today marched straight past the Gold Medal-defending USA 91-83 for a magnificent Games exhibition win in Las Vegas, only the Boomers' second ever success over the sport's standard-bearers.

Patty, Matisse and Argentina is "ash"

In: Boomers & Opals — Sunday, 11 Jul, 2021

THE irrepressible Patty Mills today pulled out a scorching, high-arching 3-pointer at the buzzer to beat Argentina 87-84 in a Tokyo Olympics exhibition warm-up game in Las Vegas, rookie Boomer Matisse Thybulle the big talking point on top of Ash Barty claiming the Wimbledon women's singles crown.

Draw, eliminations help Boomers quest

In: Boomers & Opals — Tuesday, 6 Jul, 2021

THE elimination of regular nemeses Serbia and Lithuania from the men's Olympic draw at Tokyo and the make-up of Australia's group definitely opens the door for the Boomers to progress to the second round.

Gold? Let's lower the boom

In: Boomers & Opals — Sunday, 4 Jul, 2021

THERE's nothing grander than our beloved senior citizens of the Boomers team for Tokyo declaring their intent on winning Gold. We can only wish them the best of luck - a commodity they finished without at the last Worlds and Olympics - while maybe reining in our own expectations.
